Following the Triple H taking the role of Head of Creative in WWE, he brought multiple released superstars that include Karrion Kross, Dakota Kai, IYO SKY and more. Fans also expecting that the Sasha Banks and Naomi would return to WWE soon under the Triple H regime.
Dave Meltzer of Wrestling Observer Newsletter reported that WWE could be saving the former WWE Women’s Tag Team Champions Sasha Banks and Naomi as surprise entrants for the tournament. He also noted that Dakota Kai and Iyo Sky are the current favorites to win tournament. However, the tournament’s final match will allegedly not feature on the Clash at the Castle as Sky & Kai are already announced for six-women tag team match.
Sky & Kai are the favorites. If they make the finals, it presumably won’t be on PPV since they already announced Sky & Kai for a trios match on 9/3. This being announced right as Naomi & Banks are expected back is probably not a coincidence, and I guess the idea is for them not to be in the tournament and have them surprise appear later,” reported Dave Meltzer.
